AL:ICE: Captain Jacob Thomas USMC is a divorced combat veteran just trying to get his life back on track. Returning to the Marine Corps after a failed attempt at reconciliation with his estranged wife, Jake volunteers for an experiment that catapults him into a future where humanity has been stripped of 200 years of technological advancements and more than half its population. With the help of a faceless benefactor named Alice, he starts a journey to put Earth back on a path to recovery.

AL:ICE-9: With the help of the ALICE systems, Jake Thomas has successfully faced off with the hostile NeHaw three times. As he works to assemble a space fleet to address the expanding NeHaw aggression, terrestrial challenges at home continue to pile up, and the threat of a two-front war looms ahead.

AL:ICE: Resurrection: With unexplained transmissions originating in Europe, and an alien visitor with questionable motives, Jake is awash in new challenges on Earth and in space. Can the activity in Europe be a sign of troubles to come, or is it an indication of allies waiting to be discovered?

AL:ICE: Space War: Jake finds himself once again fighting a two-front war, one in space and one on the home front.

I suspect this author may be mildly psychotic. “Like a high powered business man”.
It is as if the emotions of the characters where described to the writer by a four year old. “Happy, glad, sad, mad”. No complexed feeling or issues that come with normal human interaction. Also a very convenient solution to every problem that requires no effort to overcome by the characters. All solutions coming from “Alice” the super computer A.I.
No argument, this is an interesting premise with a lot of potential. But the story falls flat and is largely boring.
Note: I’m only listening to the first 2 books. Maybe the series gets better as it goes on.
I can’t be bothered to find out.

Blahhh

I found the story flowed fairly well and it has a good military futuristic dystopian vibe that with very little imagination could see happening

I just enjoyed the story

interesting premise. Poorly executed. Also, it turns into a weird juvenile sex fantasy.
The narrator does fairly well, however every sentence is pronounced like he's voicing a movie trailer.

I'd pass.

I started off listening to this, and at first, I was on board. However, it very quickly turned into an adolescent teen boys' wet dream. I continued listening for a while longer as I did like the premise behind the pseudo-science portions. Then, even that failed me. I won't discuss the details of the "science" that bothered me in case said 12 year old boy wants to read this, but if he is listening, go hug your Mom and speak to a therapist.

misogynistic 12 year old virgin boy's sex fantasy

really enjoyable listen and love the unique societal norms that are constructed i.e. Jakes wives. in many ways this could have been a spicier book but the author wisely chose to focus on the space action instead of the physical romance. please listen to it I don't want to give any spoilers away.

enjoyable listen
